    Laurie herself says she is retiring so I fixed it. I also added her announcement to the OP, which I encourage everyone to read. Having only briefly met Laurie while purchasing some Christmas ornaments, I learned a lot about her career at the ATC from it. (Not that I am unaware of who LaurieP is ) I have always appreciated Laurie's posts here at WB and I admire the skill with which she has handled being a spokesperson for the ATC. Over the years, she has had to navigate a variety of contentious issues and she has always done so tactfully and gracefully. Thank you for your tireless efforts in service to the AT community! Maybe a long hike in your future?

    Did not know you were a sawyer too, good job having the requisite PPE for the pic!

    Thanks for everything, Laurie! As I recall, you went out of your way to get me info on parking at Penmar a few years back for a four state challenge. I really appreciated that.

    This is a real loss for the ATC. Laurie is an outstanding person, a true ambassador for the trail and a great connection and resource for hikers. Best of luck to her and her husband in their future endeavors. Hope to see you on the trail sometime Laurie!
